TITLE: THE MYSTERY OF THE FAITHFUL AND TRUE RIDER Dr. William Soto Santiago Friday, August 8, 1997 (Third activity) Escobedo, Nuevo Leon, Mexico
**Source Scripture: Revelation 19:11-16** **THE POWER OF THE SPOKEN WORD OF GOD ** _Dr. William Soto Santiago _ _Tuesday, January 28, 1992 _ _Santiago de Chile, Chile_ By and with the power of the spoken Word of God, the kingdom of the gentiles (represented in the ten toes of iron and clay, in those feet of iron and clay) will be spoken out of existence. And by the power of the spoken Word of God, every divine blessing will be spoken into existence for every child of God. Now, one is the moment where that Word is spoken, and another is the moment where that Word materializes. So you see, that Word that has to be spoken is the divine thoughts. That Divine Program that He would carry out has been in the Mind of God; and we were there too, that is why we are genes of the divine mind or thought. [Rev. Jose B. Perez] On page 187 [p. 172 in Eng.] of The Ages, on a little part there, it says: “The bride has the mind of Christ for she knows what He wants done with the Word. She performs the command of the Word in His name for she has “thus saith the Lord.” Then the Word is quickened by the Spirit and it comes to pass. Like a seed that is planted and watered, it comes to full harvest, serving its purpose.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And he writes the Cornerstone there, with the word [WSS] «Mind»; in other words, that is the mind that the Bride has: The mind of Christ.And he goes on to say:Now, in order for something to materialize, the Word that contains the characteristics that have to be materialized has to be spoken. (...) So you see, the characteristics of the new body are in that spoken Word; that is why I have told you that the new body will be 18 to 21 years in appearance, in appearance. There, when you have received that Word and you have said: “Amen!”, you have received those genes from that Word, so that that body will be 18 to 21 years in appearance. And so on, every time you hear the Word and say: “Amen!”, and believe it with all your heart, you are receiving the spoken Word of God, the creative Word, which contains the divine genes so that every divine promise for that time materializes in you. When you have received that spoken Word, you can say like Abraham, that although the son wasn’t born, he could say: “I have a son, the promised son.” And where was he? In that Word that God had given him; because that Word contained the divine genes, so that one day that Word would materialize. (...) So we are waiting for our transformation. And we are not waiting for transformation like fools, without having the basis. We have the basis where our faith is deposited: in the creative Word of God spoken for this end time. That is the spoken Word of God for you and for me, which will not fail. Jesus said: “The heavens and the earth will pass away, but my Word will not pass away.”1 In other words, “shall not pass away” means that He will do what that Word says. (...) And when we can listen to that spoken Word of God, that spoken Word of God contains a power: the creative power of God; that power that scientists have tried to find, that power that moves according to the Divine Laws, that power that produced the Creation, that they call the Big Bang (that is, the big explosion that produced the creation of the universe. They call it the Big Bang. In other words, the big explosion, the first explosion). And you see, it was the creative Word of God that produced all that. [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in the message “HE THAT IS IN YOU,”2 preached by Reverend William Branham on November 10, of 63, it says on page 35 here in this booklet: “189 ‘When thou prayest, believe that you receive what you ask for, and it shall be given to you. If you say to this mountain, ‘Be moved,’ and don’t doubt in your heart, but believe that what you say will come to pass, you can have what you say. The Father worketh, and I worketh hitherto. Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing in Himself; but what He sees the Father doing, that doeth the Son likewise.’ See? And when the Father showed Him what to do; walked out there without a failure of anything, and said, ‘Let it be,’ and it was.And that same Christ lives in you. It lives in us. Then His works we’ll do, because Christ is the Word, and the promise of the Word brings healing to you. Do you believe that? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] Sure!190 He said, ‘I will not leave you comfortless.’ As I pray, asked a while ago, there in Matthew 24, see, or Matthew 28:20. See? He said, ‘I will come to you, be in you. I,’ the Person, Christ, in the form of the Holy Ghost, ‘will come and live in you. Then you won’t be your—you won’t be yourself no more. I’ll be in you. And greater is He that’s in you, than he that’s in the world.’ See? Hebrews 13:8 says, ‘He is same, yesterday and forever.’ (and he writes there: [WSS] «He comes to the individual, to the Heart, the Soul, the Most Holy Place. He comes to His Church, to the Most Holy Place, to the Soul of the Mystical Body, of His Temple». Glory to God!).”And it says, he goes on to say here:So that creative Word contains a power, and that power is what makes all that Word to materialize. And we have to be very happy, very grateful to God, and very sure and calm about God’s promises. Now, this doesn’t mean that we are going to cross our arms waiting for the transformation. We are waiting for it, we are sure about it; but not with our arms crossed, but working in the Kingdom of God, in all the things that have to be done in the Kingdom of God. And everything will work together for good and in favor of every promise that God has made for us. **THE ETERNAL CYCLE ** _Dr. William Soto Santiago _ _Sunday, June 1, 1980 _ _Tent Service _ _Cayey, Puerto Rico_ Just as Mary was the instrument that brought the body of the Lord in His First Coming, the physical body, so also the Bride of Christ will bring the physical body where the Lord will fulfill His Second Coming. It will be in Her, and it will go out, it will come through Her, through the Bride. That is why it was said by the forerunner of the Second Coming of the Lord: “Jesus in His First Coming didn’t do all things, He didn’t fulfill all the things that speak about Him; He only fulfilled those that He had to fulfill for the First Coming; and the others that He has to fulfill, those that He has to fulfill for the Second Coming: He will fulfill them through the Bride.” [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on that same page 187 [p. 172 in Eng.] of the book of The Ages (we were reading there at the end); it says below: “Those in the bride do only His will. No one can make them do otherwise. They have ‘thus saith the Lord’ or they keep still. They know that it has to be God in them doing the works, fulfilling His own Word. He did not complete all His work while in His earthly ministry so now He works in and through the bride. She knows that, for it was not yet time for Him to do certain things that He must now do. But He will now fulfill through the bride that work which He left for this specific time.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] That is what our brother William tells us there. He goes on to say:Why through the Bride? Because the instrument in which God fulfills the Second Coming of the Lord will be in the Bride. Therefore, then the Bride, just as Mary gave birth to the Messiah, the Lord in His First Coming, also the Bride of the Lord in these last days, will give birth. Will give birth to whom? She will give birth to the Lord in His Second Coming.3 **THE NAME OF GOD IN THE WEST ** _Dr. William Soto Santiago _ _Sunday, July 27, 2003 _ _Cayey, Puerto Rico_ When John received the revelation of Revelation through the Angel, the Name was there. John wanted to worship the Angel, but the Angel told him not to do it. But for the Last Day, under the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in His Angel, Christ will be fulfilling all that pertains to this end time; and then, at the end, He will open to us the mystery of the Name. As the mystery of the Name of the Lord that was in the Angel of the Lord was opened at the end: after the end of the ministry of Christ was that the mystery of the Name that was in Him was opened. [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in the book of “THE AGES” unedited4 (which is colored like light brown), it says on page 371: “263 Now I think that’s just about pretty near got the last of it, and now we’ll close in saying that this is He.…and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God,… Which is all the same: Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. And the Bride married to Jesus, makes it Mrs. Jesus; and so forth, see.264 There’s some mighty fine women in this building tonight, mighty fine, but there’s one of them that’s mine, she’s got my name. I hope you got that. She’s bearing my name, so will His Bride. All right (and there he writes next to it: [WSS] «William»):…I’ll write upon him (and he writes: [WSS] «He») the name of my God (and again on the side and writes: [WSS] «He»),…which is the new Jerusalem, which cometh down… or, the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which comes down from God… out from heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.265 I better leave that alone, hadn’t I? All right. Notice, ‘him’ there is singular. Now if you’ll go back to Revelation 2:17 just a minute, just to review it just a second (and writes next to it: [WSS] «He, singular»):He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth save he that receives it.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And also on page 27 of this same book of “THE AGES” unedited5, above, it says: “198 When He was born, Christ, the Lord. Eight days later, the Holy Spirit called His Name ‘Jesus.’ His mother had Him circumcised (And who is the Holy Spirit? He writes there: [WSS] «Gabriel»), and called Him ‘Jesus.’ He was born the Christ.199 Like, I was born a Branham. I was a Branham when I was born, and given the name of ‘William.’200 Amen. And He was born Christ, the Saviour (there next to it he wrote: [WSS] «William»). And when He was eight days old, He was given the name of ‘Jesus.’ And He was the Lord of Glory, made manifest. So, He is the Lord Jesus Christ, the God of Glory made manifest among us. Oh, there He is!”And he continues saying over here:Therefore, that mystery, the people of God will know that it will be in the Angel of Jesus Christ in the West; because the Name of God will be in the West, in the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ —and therefore— in the midst of the Church of Jesus Christ, in the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone, the stage of the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ our Savior. [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in the message “SHALOM,”6 our brother Branham tells us. He says: “[158] When He sent the seven Angels to reveal the seven messengers that had been down through there, and show the loose ends, each Angel coming each day and revealing the loose ends that Luther left, and Wesley left, and Pentecost left, is all represented in there. And in the very type and shadow of the great Shalom, Jehovah, Yahweh (In others is YHWH). See? Exactly. Throwed It in the skies (in other words, the Eternal Name of God was displayed there in that cloud)…”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And he, there in that message had this writing: [WSS] «In him and to the Most Holy Place of His Temple, His Church, which is the Age of the Cornerstone, in the Year of Jubilee of the Age of the Cornerstone, the Messiah comes with the Name of God in Him. His Name will be the Name of God. It is in His Angel».And it goes on here saying:The only one who will be able to operate the entire Program of God under that Name will be the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. And for any other person to be able to operate, or function in the Program of God for the Last Day, he will have to be arm in arm with the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, as the ministers of every age were arm in arm with every angel messenger. (...) So we can see the mystery of the Name of God in the West; we can see and understand as far as God allows us to hear and understand; but still under that mystery there is much to learn, which we will be gradually hearing and learning. All the Work of Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone, in Latin America and the Caribbean, and what is extended from Latin America and the Caribbean to other nations: everything remains under that Name, and under the ministry of the Holy Spirit through the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. In other words, everything that God does in this end time will be under the ministry of the Holy Spirit, the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, and under the Name of God in the West, in Latin America and the Caribbean. [Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the book of “THE AGES” unedited7, it says on page 487, already brother Branham here finishing, to close the message of the Laodicean Age, of this series of messages that he preached, he says: “310 Thou art God, the Almighty, You was manifested in the flesh to take away the sins of the world. You arose on the third day, ascended on High. And You’re here tonight, in amongst us (and we can say: ‘On this day too’), and in the name of the Holy Spirit. And we pray, Father, that You, our precious Lord, will fill each one of them with Your Own Self. And may they be a—a blessing to Your Kingdom and in the world that is to come. And one day when You finally reach the end of the road, that may be today yet, we don’t know when it’ll be. But may I be able, Lord; be counted among those who goes in the Rapture. May these be the ones that go in the Rapture. May every person, Divine Presence and all that’s filled with the Spirit, that belongs to God, go in the Rapture (and he writes below: [WSS] «The Name of the Holy Spirit»; and we already know, we read there, what is the Name of the Holy Spirit).”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] So be this prayer that our brother Branham made there. “But may I be able, Lord; be counted among those who goes in the Rapture. May these be the ones (And I can say: ‘May these, Lord…’)... may these be the ones that go in the Rapture. May every person, Divine Presence and all that’s filled with the Spirit, that belongs to God, go in the Rapture.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] So be it, in the Eternal Name of God.* * *
